Vertical incision

A vertical incision is a type of cut made along the length of a body part, typically used in surgical procedures. It allows doctors access to internal organs or tissues by creating a straight line along the skin. This method is often preferred for its straightforward approach, which can be easier for surgeons to navigate. Vertical incisions are commonly used in surgeries like abdominal operations or to remove tumors. The incision typically heals over time, with careful management to minimize scarring and promote recovery.
